5.0 out of 5 stars
Artificial Life is the new Artificial Intelligence.,
This review is from: Artificial Life II (Santa Fe Institute Studies in the Sciences of Complexity Proceedings) (Paperback)
If you are intrested in how biological systems can be simulated via computer or in what contect computer programs or computer simulations can be called alive -- this is the book to read.
Eventhou the articials in this book are technical reports from a scientific conference most provide easy reading for the layperson. Artificial Life is a fassinating scientific endevor that seeks to do for biology what Artificial Instelligence did for psychology -- model biological processes, instead of mental processes on the computer and look to biology as a model for computation -- using techniques such as Genetic Algorithms, Cellular Automata and Neural Networks. I find that all the books I've read that were published by the Santa Fe Institute to be intresting -- how ever the Artifical Life series is the easiest for an armchair scientist to grasp. |
